There's no way the Super Mario RPG remake is keeping the original's most infamous joke

Super Mario RPG Remake

There's a joke in the original Super Mario RPG that almost certainly won't make it into the recently announced remake but is absolutely worth remembering in light of today's news.

The joke in question is seemingly very NSFW and thus not appropriate for Nintendo's consistently family friendly image of recent years. In the original Super Mario RPG, there's an item hiding in Princess Peach's bedroom labeled "Toadstool's ???", or "Toadstool's XXX" in Japan. The item is always hidden behind Mario's character model, and if you find it early enough in the game you'll be met by a panicked Grandma who offers you a Mushroom in hopes you'll forget what you saw. However, if you find the item after Toadstool joins your party, she'll reprimand you for going through her things.
